Sales Mix Recommendation To the extent allowed by production and
market constraints, the company should produce as much of Product R as
possible. With a single shift yielding 176 hours per month (8 x 22), the
company can produce these units of Product R:

Part 3
Sales Mix Recommendation with Second Shift If the second shift is added,
the maximum possible output of R will double:
However, this level of output exceeds the company’s market constraint of
550 units of Product R per month. This means the company should produce
550 units of Product R, and commit the remainder of the productive capacity
to Product T. This is computed as follows:
The output of Product T with 132 production hours is

Part 4
Sales Mix Recommendation By incurring additional marketing cost, the
company can relax the market constraint for sales of Product R up to the
point where 675 units can be sold. This means the company can produce
675 units of Product R, and commit the remainder of its productive capacity
to Product T. These computations are:
The output of Product T with 82 production hours is

Reporting in Action — BTN 25-1
1. The internal rate of return (given here as 10%) is the rate which yields a
net present value of zero for an investment. The annuity factor for 10
periods and a discount rate of 10% is 6.1446. This means we can solve
for the amount of annual cash flows as follows:
